The ASUS U2E-A2B is a gorgeous, leather-clad ultraportable that weighs next to nothing. But it could use a price reduction and a processor upgrade....

A stylish and well-featured ultraportable at the luxury end of the market, but ultimately more style over substance. And if the Asus U2E-1P014E appeals but the price seems a little steep, consider the ?1,199 black leather version with 120GB hard drive...

Trackpad wasnt sensitive enough. A bit small for our taste. Graphics performance lags.
The Asus U2E isnt about surprises, but in the realm of ultraportable laptops, often surprises are a bad thing. Like, surprise! Theres no optical drive! Or, surprise! There arent enough USB ports! Instead, the U2E has all the connectivity and featu...
